Bad Beats

[bkniefel]

Awhile back I was playing on Absolute Poker and got my bankroll from 800 to 4500 in less than 72 hours. I found myself sitting at the 5 10 game short handed with 2 others: One guy was really tight and just playing his hand. And the other was loose and quite dumb. I battled with him for a good hour before a caught a wired pair of tens. Avg bet pre was around 40 so i put it at 60. He calls with the flop coming 8 10 8. I was shocked that I might actually be able to take this guy's chips and be done for the night. I check it, he bets 240... I actually thought twice and told myself that I am commited and would see this down (I can't assume he has 8 So I min raise....He SHOVES. Wow.. I didn't know whether to jump for joy or hang myself. I call, he turns over 8 10 off. The anticipation is RUNNING THROUGH MY BLOOD the turn card...... 8

Ouch, that must have hurt, did you break the keyboard or slam the mouse?

That's what happens with me LOLOL

[dabber1]

This is bad, my only consolation would be that it could never happen to me cause I would never have that much money.LOL

[USCTrojans]

Oh I've been there mate, I once lost $2700 on the National Title game USC Trojans lost to Texas lol

So yeah it stings like a bee !

[bkniefel]

Actually I just looked at the monitor and if I recall correctly, a single tear dropped from my left eye.

[USCTrojans]

LOL I know the feeling, although no tears, I like to hit my hand, make it hurt LOL

man that musta REALLY sucked, you couldn't even wish for the river....... hopefully your night got better!

[NeverWinHere]

Wow, that's roughm and sickning! You can't fold that though, unless you aren't interested in making money, but you wouldn't be playing poker if that was the case! Always hurts when you lose like that, just gotta let it roll of your shoulders!

Yea the only thing is that Absolute had the scandal and what not so it was hard to think that it was just a 1 outter

You know, I ask myself this over and over again, one reason, not a lot of people are as much into poker so they dont know all these things. On the other hand, these cheats happen or happenedon the highest levels available, so the average small player wont know about this at all LOL

Well, let's get serious about it then. I've already discussed this with software engineers and investors. I'm working on my degree to expedite the process. I plan on doing this in 2011.

Mate to develop a software it takes a lot of cash.

Its better to start getting a skin of a settled Network and then when you grow and your player database grows then you can start thinking about developing your own. Starting from scratch this day is far tougher than it was 6 years ago when PS started
